Re: Hunter x Hunter to return to Jump! (for short story)

How do you know it will continue later for this short story? It's just a little extra for the movie. First people were like ''omgz i wanna see the massacre'' Now that he's doing it, everyone's pissed. What does it have to do with the continuation of the manga?

Re: Hunter x Hunter to return to Jump! (for short story)

I might have skimmed too much information, but are these short stories just that? Or will they be full on manga chapters setting up the movie? I assume that if it will be ran in Shonen Jump it will be manga. Any new manga content at all from him is great news to me.

Do not read if you don’t want spoilers of the new manga coming out this monday!

Kurapika protested to the chief of his clan, he would leave his village despite the law prohibiting it. A year ago, Kurapika and Pairo (his young friend seen in the pictures) met a woman in the woods trying to become pro hunter. They listened to his reasons, and received a dictionary they read every day. The woman left.
Kurapika eventually agree with the chief, to go outside, it must pass the tests of the ancients. The first two tests are matters of knowledge he succeeds easily. The third is a test of self-control, it is a bit complicated, but I understand that the goal is to go shopping in the city for 24 hours, and during that time, neither he nor his partner did their eyes go scarlet. Kurapika Pairo chooses as a partner.

Plus some precisions by chibinol from ritual scan:

Quote:

1. Kurapika gets along with the chief because the chief read the dictionary and admits it's a good book.
2. During the last test, a special liquid is poured into their eyes which, in case theey trigger their scarlet eyes during the 24 hours, they will be maintained that way until the end (for example if they activate them after 4 hours, the eyes will stay red during the remaining 20 hours), since the goal is to come back with normal eyes. The origin of the drug goes back to when the Kuruta clan were looking for a means to control their eyes transformation.
